While I think Jeremey might have a bit of a leg up on some of the other steve perry wannabe's singing for journey tribute acts these days, I still think the tribute scene (with respect to Journey) is sad. Very sad. Perhaps there's still a draw in some markets. However, I can tell you for shit certain, that on long island, the tribute thing (which was huge between the late 90s (power windows :rush tribute) and mid 2004 (evolution: jrny trib and Bad Med:BJ trib).....it is deader than a doornail right now. Just last year, Evolution (fronted by Hugo) played a lame free outdoor town of hempstead band shell. While I didn't go, this was a FAR cry from when this band and other big-name tribute acts were packing places like BB Kings in manhattan or large bar venues on long island.

I don't know. I mean, I went to the Frontiers concert this past weekend and that place was packed out! True, it wasn't a very large venue, but it seemed like the people got their
money's worth.

You sure did get your moneys worth with Jeremey.I have seen him before and will be going back time after time.I think he is that good.

Have to disagree with you there, some acts give up their day jobs to go out on the road and must be doing well at it since they still do it. I think it is great tribute acts bring the music of Journey all over the country. While Hugo def catches the look of Perry, he def lacks the power in his voice from the Evolution clips I have seen. Kudos to Hugo though for having all the mannerisms down on stage

Thus being the main issue I have with Hugo. His own stuff is really good and his self-titled Hugo album might be better than some of the stuff Journey has done. Good singer also, even if his voice is thin. The thinness only becomes really obvious though when you have him singing Journey material because Perry's voice had a lot of depth at that range.
The issue is you still see those Perry mannerisms even when Hugo performs his own stuff (which, granted is very rare). It's off-putting to say the least. Perry could do those moves and look natural because he was being himself...when someone copies it, it looks intentional and therefore fake. Maybe I'm alone in this, but I want to see the person's own personality, not their attempt to clone someone else. You can't copy someone and look natural.
